Thanksgiving Trip

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.

This year, we did not have any planned turkey dinner, no family or friends around. We decided to go for a long weekend trip. We went up to Atlanta and stayed at downtown Atlanta for 4 days! It was fun but just too short ;)

Atlanta is about 5.5 hours away. We drove up on Thanksgiving day and stopped for supper. Of course not many places were open and we didn't expect too much on food. We didn't even think we would have any turkey until we get to Atlanta. We stopped at Cracker Barrel and it turned out they have Thanksgiving dinner! They were not bad! We giggled the whole time. This is the first Thanksgiving dinner I didn't have to do Anything. I enjoyed cooking but I also enjoy not having to do anything :)

When we arrived at our hotel, we discovered that they just finished their Thanksgiving party (that we could have got to) They had a lot of good food and it's for Everyone! Oh well, we were tired from the drive and wanted to go for a walk anyway. After we checked in, we headed toward Olympic Park and had dinner at McCormick & Schmick's @ CNN center.

On Black Friday, we (I) had to go to the Mall (of course). We visited 2 malls: Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza (I did go to Tiffany but didn't get anything this time). In the evening, we checked out a cute neighborhood, Virginia Highlands.

The following 2 days we visited the High Museum mainly to see the impressionism and the Louvre exhibits, Atlantic Station, and we even had Dim Sum!!

That was a great trip! just too short! We still want to go visit the Georgia Aquarium. I guess next time.
